Day three at the British Science festival

Well, after a busy and successful weekend in beautiful downtown Guildford meeting the good visitors to the BSF, we have now moved lock, stock and two smoking barrels to the marquee in front of the Austin Pierce Building at the University of Surrey, also in Guildford.

SERPENT has welcomed 400 schoolchildren today who were all over the SERPENT simulator. They can't keep away and keep coming back for seconds! This event rocks! The opportunities for hands-on science are too good to miss, so if you're reading this make sure you come over to join in with the fun!

About Me

Collaborating closely with key players in the oil and gas industry, the "Scientific and Environmental ROV Partnership using Existing iNdustrial Technology" (SERPENT) project aims to make cutting-edge industrial ROV technology and data more accessible to the world's science community, share knowledge and progress deep-sea research.
The programme interacts with science and conservation groups globally to communicate the project to the public, increasing the awareness of our fragile marine resources.
